Problem setting Internet Mail within ACT 6.0

[rosalind1405]

I have set up Internet Mail with ACT 6.0 and everything seemed ok. However when I start sending email within ACT it kept giving me error message to say network problem cannot send the email and it is stored in the outbox folder and the email is switched to "work offline". I tried switching on to "work online" but each time I send email it does the same thing.

My SMTP needs authentication - but not the SPA. Is this the cause of my problem. Advice will be greatly appreciated.

ACT!'s Internet Mail didn't support authentication on SMTP

Maybe link it through Outlook or Outlook Express
